I told my mom

[aidensxmomma]

and she is way more pissed than i expected. it's horrible. she was telling me how i'm ruining my life, aiden's life, tommy's life, and the new baby's life. yeah. so i don't know. now i'm even more scared to tell the other parents. any advice?

 

[tasha41]

Not sure what to tell you, I've only done it once.. but I know if I was pregnant again soon after this one's born my mom would be SUPER pissed, possibly more pissed at me than she was the first time.

Yeah, my mom told me that as soon as i can be put on birth control after this baby is born, she's doing it. she doesn't want anymore grandchildren running around until i'm older. I don't blame her though. Although, it's good that she's older than most moms with 17 yr old daughters. she'll be 57 two days after my gender ultrasound :]. And my dad will be 59 in april, so by the time baby can say grandma, grandpa, or whatever he/she is going to call them, my dad will be in his 60's :] so i'm glad he's not in his 40's.

I hope your mom comes around. maybe try telling her as soon as this baby is born you're going to see your doctor about birth control, and if you were already on it, maybe tell her you're going to see your doctor about a different kind of birth control so this doesn't happen again,

My dad is pissed .. but he gets pissed about most things tbh haha. My mum is playing more the dissapointment card
I guess its something that no parent really wants to hear and she's probably just feeling upset for you and worried etc etc. Give her a bit of time to calm down and show her your mature side? good lukc hun xxx

Well its not her life its yours u already have a kid dnt u? So i think its better havin kids with a closer age gap! Just do whats best for u its not up to them its up 2 u!! xx

 

[aidensxmomma]

Thank you you guys. Well, the next day she had settled down quite a bit. She now talks to me about it calmly and kind of jokes about it. I think she will handle this just fine. I also told my grandma. When she found out I was pregnant with my son, she just about had a stroke. She was saying I needed to get an abortion and all that. With this one she was much more calm and is already over it. I told her like 2 hours ago.

[xCorkettex]

Out of pure interest were you on birth control?or was it planned at all?
I know alot of people getting preggers whilst on the pill atm :S

 

[navarababe]

first of all, congrats on your pregnancy and telling ur mum. WTG.

My mum was a like that at first as i said i would need to move back home as ex OH was wanting me to move out, she said no unless i had a abortion. (which i wasnt gonna do) so i moved to my sisters and 2days later she was fine, knitting baby jumpers etc. I think your mum finds it hard to understand ur not her wee baby no more and that ur a adult, and that must be hard for them x

 

[aidensxmomma]

Thanks for all your replies girls! Actually, my mom is now helping me set up my doctor's appointment and she's coming around to the idea more and more. My grandmas is still hasn't screamed at me or anything. It's amazing. We told my boyfriend's parents. His dad just asked us how long we knew and his mom told me that she decided it was nothing to get upset over, cuz it can't be changed. She told me today (in a joking way), "I hope you don't have twins." My dad was the easiest person to tell out of everyone. I text him (I know, bad me) and he called me up and he was in a very good mood. He told me I'm an adult now and can make my own decisions. Then he told me he thought it was funny because he gets two grandkids out of this. So it's all out in the open now.

And xCorkettex, I was on birth control up until November 9. I had gotten my prescription too late and so I was taking a month long break. That's all it took.

I was a very young mom myself and back then couldnt understand why my mom and dad were so mad when I got pregnant , well they got stuck paying for my baby to be born , and for awhile bought my baby stuff untill I started getting child support , Im now 32 years old and can understand why they were so mad , Now im kinda in the same situation , my 20 year old step daughter is pregnant and Im seriously scared because She is due just 3 weeks before me and I have no idea how she will get things she needs for her baby , as we need to buy stuff for our lo , she is single , no job and lives at home with us , she has no drivers license , and no car , her babys dad is not around so that leaves us to take her to all of her doc appointments , Im very upset with her because she got pregnant on purpose , she knew her dad and I were ttc and I really dont know what she was thinking . So if your parents seem pissed at first there is usually a good reason behind it , and for me its not the thought of being grandma , its how in the world is she going to support her baby , I dont want to see her baby go without but I dont know how Im going to be able to buy diapers for 2 babies at once and I dont really feel its my place to . congrats on your pregnancy anyway , good luck .

My parents were crazy mad when I told them I'm pregnant.We actually didn't speak for the rest of my pregnancy.
But once I had Lola they changed,they were completely taken with her!

[Tippsygirlie]

My mum told me the other week shes pissed at me but theres nothing she can do about it,

when i first told hershe just gave me a hug and asked how i felt,
Dad shouted down the phone OH FOR F***S SAKE AGAIN? [I Had an ectopic a month before concieving this one which was allso unplanned]

My step sisters mum is pissed at her, more pissed than my mum is at me, but my step sis is very immature and also lieing about the dad blahdy blah blah blah

 

[MommyToBeTara]

I Hear you.

My mom and dad didn't talk to me for weeks when i told them i was pregnant, when i was ill with e-coli they suddenly turned around and said that i was the one carrying the baby and im the one to make the decisions as of what to do with the baby. I think their coming around to the idea of me being pregnant.

Im now 35 weeks pregnant and they couldn't be finer with it ...Good luck with your pregnancy x

 

[x-dannielle]

yeah i fell pregnant on the pill!
my mum was shocked but was supportive as she fell pregnant at 16 with my brother so things wernt to bad!
other family members wernt so supportive but now im 33weeks they've all got used to the idea and are excited! x

 

[Amy-Lea]

My mum and dad were 14-15 when they found out they were having me so when finding out I was pregnant, Mum thought i was joking then hugged me. Then said 'Dont go asleep til I get back I wana tell your nan' and ran up the street in her PJ's in the midde of the night haha

Mum was 32 when she become a Nan on my 18th Birthday, not only was her baby a woman that day but give birth. She's such an emotional person too.
She has said though, that If I was to get pregnant again 'once is a mistake, twice is stupid' and that it wouldnt be fair on Hallie.

i have 2 boys with 12 months between them. I wont lie it is hard work when the 2nd is a newborn but it is so rewarding now that they are 3 and 4 they are so so close (like twins) and would be lost without one another. (although i wouldnt do it again!)
